Egyptian security sources told ArabicNews.com today that the number of Arab Afghans who are residing in the camps of exiled Saudi Arabian Bin Laden in Afghanistan is 2830 persons among them 594 Egyptians, 410 Jordanians, 291 Yemeni, 255 Iraqi, 162 Syrian, 177 Algerians, 111 Sudanese, 63 Tunisians, 53 Moroccans and 32 Palestinians.
The sources said that Ecuador handed over to Egypt a suspect as he is one of the committers of the Jerusalem massacre. Other sources said some 15 members of the Islamic Group were handed over from abroad.
The Egyptian security sources added that Egypt received a large number of Egyptian fundamentalists from foreign countries within the context of several security agreements. Some countries were not previously committed to Egypt with any agreements for handing over criminals, but have initiated cooperation in this field when they felt in danger, the source added.
